The Boston Bruins have been active this summer, acquiring winger JJ Peterka and defensemen Will Borgen and Connor Clifton. They traded Joonas Korpisalo to the New York Rangers, opening potential roster spots for Michael DiPietro. Despite these moves, the Bruins need more depth, particularly a top-six winger and a first-line center, following the loss of Viktor Arvidsson and a lack of options in the free agent market. The team may look to trade defensemen Mason Lohrei and Henri Jokiharju to further bolster their roster.
